    I did the Gran Fondo last year and basically had pretty much the same plan as you did. I spin three x a week, do weights 2x and usually ride outdoors 1-2 a week. You will be fine.

    Was that the one that got hit with one of San Diego's five allotted days of winter weather? It dropped into the low 50s and it was raining. Did you do the century route?

    Channlluv: You got it! I don't think I ever been colder or wetter in my entire life and I am originally from WA State!!! We did the 53ish miles. That was the farthest I had ridden at that time. It was a very nice route. Not too tough at all for a newbie (like me). Very doable.
